    Evening all,

    I've re-adjusted my direct debit for British Gas because we are paying too much so have opted to take out £65. I've also sold a few things today and got £80. So far then £145/£2014, I do have a few other things on eBay.

    Well yesterdays NSD didn't quite work at as had to spend £1.49 on supplies for work (my turn). Still not too bad. Hunted round the house and decided I have cds that I don't use so those will be going on musicmagpie this weekend which will hopefully get me off the ground with this challenge.
